Being gluten intolerant, I'm so grateful that this place exists, but it's so disappointing that the gluten free cupcakes and cookies (which are moist by the nature of the moisture content of GF flours) are ruined by vegan-izing them. I don't mind…More »
I am only qualified to review one cupcake here, but it's an amazing one. And that is the Gluten Free Red Velvet Cupcake.
After removing the little fondant "G" on top (fondant, yuck), I take a bite. The cake, though a bit crumbly, is perfection:…More »

Don't get me wrong...I'm Gluten Intolerant and am really grateful this place exists, but I find the Risotto and pasta dishes to be very heavy handed and the deserts and cookies sickeningly sweet, and this is coming from someone with quite the sweet…More »

I want to preface this review by saying that I LOVE Le Pain Quotidien as a chain. The wooden communal tables and Venetian Stucco walls and rustic decor are adorable, it's a great concept and the fresh and healthy eating options are delicious and…More »

I think some people are unnecessarily hard on this place. It's one of my favorite neighborhood joints. I can come here expecting a consistently great latte or cappuccino and a delicious pastry. And that's exactly what you get here.

This is the takeout side of the super-chic raw food restarurant, Pure Food and Wine. While it's super busy and it's hard to get one of the three little tables, the food is really good and it's a good option if you don't have time to dine or wait for…More »

This is, I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) the first raw food restaurant in NYC. It's upscale and expensive, but oh, SO wonderful. I can't say enough about this restaurant. It's appropriate for raw foodists, vegans and the gluten intolerant,…More »

So, this is what I like to term a "Better Diner". I always think it a bit unfair when people pile their lofty gastronomic sophistications on what, by definition, is supposed to be simple fare. This said, Peter's still far, far exceeds Diner…More »

Pizza

At least they try, having Gluten Free Pies. I've ordered from them when I have an absolute craving. Problem is, the (pre-made) crust sucks, so I've also ordered extra cheese and pepperoni to mask that, which it really doesn't.

One of the best thin crust gluten free pizzas I've had. The crust is light and doughy, yet crisp at the end, as thin pizza crust is meant to be. You can taste the freshness of the sauce, which is not overly sugary. I love the fresh mozzarella,…More »

*Apparently they have closed this location and moving to Manhattan*
I was so excited that a raw restaurant opened in Williamsburg close by to me, and have gone a few times since it opened. When it first opened I came here for quite a few solitary…More »

THIS "burger" place is a unique fast-food concept that is a truly refreshing addition to soul-less midtown. It has a somewhat Japanese-Inspired feel to it and is very, very modern.
This eatery is, all at once: Delicious, High-Tech, Build-Your-Own,…More »
I hope to run into this super-friendly Vegan food truck again, or maybe it's better if I don't, because OMG, the Gluten Free Peanut Butter Blondies were AH-Mazing! Super soft and lightly moist, very unusual for baking without any animal products.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for the Gluten Free Crepes. I haven't been able to have a crepe in years, save that time I convinced a Paris Creperie owner to make me an all-buckwheat galette, a few years ago. Since Bar Breton has been permanently…More »

How wonderful to find this gem of an Organic, Non-GMO Vegan Cafe, tucked up behind the front desk and gift shop of Jivamukti Yoga up on the 2nd floor (above Max Brenner). You gotta know it's here to know about it, and I can't believe I've only…More »
Oh how I LOVE 5 Napkin Burger. I crave your Lobster Roll sliders. And you serve them on the most crave-worthy potatoe-y spongey Gluten Free burger buns (if you request Gluten Free). The funny thing being that it comes differently every time I…More »
